SLIP SLOP SLAP
Week 7 of 13
A family friend is a semi-retired plastic surgeon and now operates his home surgery as the Woollahra Skin Cancer Clinic. Getting checked for these nasties has been on my to-do list for some time, so I finally found the time to see him on Saturday.
I basically got the all clear but he did freeze of a few "crusty bits" from the tops of my ears and one on my back. So heads up bloggers ! The message from the Doc for runners was to watch the scalp, tops of ears and bottom lip. I always wear a cap and put on the 30+ on my face and back of neck but think I have been slack on the ears over the years. I have never used any sun screen on my lips so I will have to make that part of my routine from now.
I entered the Sydney Morning Herald Half Marathon this morning. It's a great race and a really fun day. As the late, great Big Kev would say - "I'm excited!"

hey gronk - great run on saturday - that is definitely a PB - if you were in the olympics .05 could break a world record 5 times! and that is a v good reminder that it is time to get to the molescan clinic!
I have to admit I am pretty slack in the sunscreen department. Will keep it in mind for next summer.
I have always had a rather noticable freckle on my bottom lip. I try to slip slop slap it these days (as compared to my younger more irrespondible days) but maybe I should also get it checked out.
PS nice run.
hmm, I hope I don't have crusty bits.
Oooh entry in!! Thats great Gronk! I will have to put mine in this week! If I survive sunday in one ok I want to give this one another run.... it is such a fun course!
Congrats on the equal PB. How is everything holding?
Couldn't make Domain. Injured at present.
See you out there on the SMH 1/2 course. There were a few striders beers after the race last year as well.
